Why am I up?

Well HE's been up for about an hour and is quite contented to play with Pa. That's fine by me, but it really plays havoc with the rest of the day.  Pa calls him EeHe, Why? Well that's the sound he makes as he hides and races along the carpet in get away fashion. He gets so excited!! Now Pa is promising to teach him how to use toilet paper the right way!! It's a joke between the 2 of them. Remember the old Northern commercial where the paper is all over? That's a very real possibility! The thing is nobody will be paid for that! The good thing, I suppose, is that rehearsals are not necessary.

Riddle me this

I have to do this before I have something else take its place! This morning DH ( and you know who that is) couldn't find his cell phone. Wanting to be a good Pa and let Matt sleep, he used his flashlight to look in, around, and under the bed for his phone.He had his work shoes on, you know the kind with the heavy soles. On these hardwood floors, well need I say more. I finally said "Just call it!" and I did. Three times, because oh I don't know why but I try to do what I'm asked at 6AM.. Dh said he remembered  having it in his hand when he got in bed because he set the alarm. Matt had to tell him bye and then the 2 of us went back to be for 2 hours. I'm still laughing inside when I think how that whole conversation must have sounded. Kinda like Abbott and Costello!

Doughnut SWAP

I'm going to knit more doughnuts within the week. I sure would like to swap sweets with someone. Hey that just might work for a RAVELRY group. Now I better figure out the guidelines! Think I'll brush my teeth first. All that doughnut thinking made me hungry and I heard if you brush your teeth you may be able to stave off a pound or two. Worth a try anyway!!

Cooking or not!

Well I did it again. Banquet frozen dinner! Let me ask--Is it just me or is the directions for the macaroni dinner "screwy"?How can you slit the film then put it back on the macaroni? Hmmm! Think I'll return to KRAFT! Boiling water is easier!

Eat again and again

I'm still eating way too much. Be real glad when Matt learns to talk well so I can know what exactly it is that he wants to put in his belly, not merely guess work. Hey I'm getting good at it but I'm not so sure that my wardrobe can stand it!!He is a good eater though. A cottage cheese kick is working itself through the midweek now!!

Before I forget

About the same time that OBAMA made fun of the Washington residents for closing school (Ah come on!! It was like your dad saying he walked uphill 5 miles both ways to get to school!) well that same week, before we left so it would have been the very end of January, Herndon, Virginia got a tenth of an inch of snow. No joke! It was on the news. Now- question. Who measured it and then called it in?

Trying just doesn't cut it

All right! I will admit that I have been trying for days, if not weeks to write something. I've had some really good thoughts too. Then I saw this guy talking about writing 30 minutes a day. Just keep the pencil going! Yeah, right. Somehow that just made me feel guilty and I'm not even using a pencil! Go Figure!
